SHOOTING FOR JOEY SILVERA
I RECENTLY TURN DOWN A SHOOT FOR JOEY SILVERA BECAUSE I FEEL THAT I OR RATHER WE AS TRANSSEXUALS ARE BEING TAKEN FOR GRANTED. THE SCENE IS SUPPOSE TO BE A TS, GG AND A GUY. I RECEIVE AN EMAIL FROM THE SWEET AND BEAUTIFUL G-GIRL THAT SHE WANTS TO WORK WITH ME. I AM SAD THAT JOEY OR HIS ASSISTANT KEVIN DIDN'T ASK ME THEMSELF. IT TURN OUT THAT THE GIRL WAS THE ONE PICKING AND CHOOSING THE TS FOR THIS SCENE. I'M FLATTERED SHE CHOSE ME. HOWEVER, THIS IS A TS LINE. THE GUYS BUYING THEM BUY THEM BECAUSE WE'RE IN IT. MINUS THE TS IT'S ANOTHER ST8 MOVIE. CONSIDERING HOW RARE TS ARE THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO SHOOT, YOU FIGURE WE WOULD HAVE A LITTLE MORE CONTROL OVER OUR OWN SHIT. IT'S BAD ENOUGH WE'RE UNDER PAID FOR MOST OF THE WORK OUT THERE, SO LETS NOT START GIVING THEM THE LITTLE POWER WE DO HAVE. IN TS MOVIES, THE TS WILL AND SHOULD BE THE STAR. WE WILL NOT STAND IN A LINE FOR PICKING AND CHOOSING IN OUR OWN VIDEOS. I LOVE JOEY BUT HE SHOULD BE MORE CONSIDERATE TO THE GIRLS THAT MADE HIM.
LADIES, ESPECIALLY INDUSTRY GALS. PLEASE VOICE YOUR OPINION. IS WHAT I'M FEELING REASONABLE OR SHOULD I LOWER MY HORMONE DOSSAGE. HMM...
We all have something to say. Don't forget that we are a family.

My dislike of TS with girl scenes apart ... I'm very surprised at this knowing how many TS's Joey has worked with over the years and how much he likes and respects the girls.
I do agree with your point and stance. It's good to see somebody standing up for what they believe in.

I don't know much about the industry and the pay and how things work.
But I know that I am probably not just speaking for myself when I say that I wish very much that you would do the video for selfish reasons.
That being said, you are a beautiful person and a sweetheart and I would want you to do what is in your best interest and makes you feel happy inside.
THanks for posting beautiful!

Yasmin, you are right on!!! First of all you are and always will be the star in an movie you choose to participate in. Your comment about Joey is true. I don't know the man but do like his movies. But at least he could give you the consideration of a phone call to explain why he wants you for the shoot. Stick to your guns girl and I look forward to meeting you in person one day. Take care.
let the good times roll..

I suppose it depends on what kind of film Joey Silvera was shooting & who the girl is. If the girl was Belladonna or a star like her, & the film was being sold on the back of her name, it’s reasonable that she have a major say about who is cast with her
If it was a TS film & not a str8 film with a TS scene, most fans of TS film care more about the T-girls than G-Girl or men in those films. So it would seem reasonable for you as a star in the world of TS films to have some say in the casting.
Or have you in particular or T-girls in general had the reputation that you are willing to work with anyone? Hence no need to consult you.
